If Barkley can avoid a late-season injury, he will likely shatter LeSean McCoy’s single-season rushing record (1,607) set in 2013 for Philadelphia, and he’s pacing toward A 2,000-yard rushing season ahead of a deep playoff run.

Even on a night where Saquon Barkley didn't look like he was going to break a big run, the Philadelphia Eagles running back showed why he deserves to be the league MVP. Barkley's 25-yard touchdown run capped an impressive 24-19 victory over the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium Sunday,

The Eagles, with the NFL's No. 1 defense, did just enough to contain Jackson, who had 237 yards passing and 2 touchdowns, and Derrick Henry, who's second in rushing yards to Barkley, to 82 yards rushing. But the Eagles needed Barkley to break free, desperately.
